The aim of our work was to investigate the impact of the use of information and communication technologies on the development of global planetary thinking of future specialists of multiply non-humanitarian specialties (by educational areas of training in economics, tourism and programming). The general scientific methods, developed by the authors’ model of testing with open and closed questions, pedagogical experiment, methods of mathematical data processing were applied while conducting the current study. The model of diagnostics allows obtaining such results at the stage of the Control Experiment: a Good and Excellent Level of knowledge generally have about 35% of the respondents (quite low). We have developed training courses for the following subjects: Philosophy, Ecology and Environmental Economics with the use of information and communication technologies. Formative Experiment test allows distinguishing that quite a high level of unsatisfactory perception have about 11%. At the stage of the formative experiment, the positive effect of the course implementation became obvious. Approximately 61% of respondents found out Good and Excellent level of knowledge, Level of unsatisfactory perception decrease almost in twice and was about 6% (quite a low). The results of the of the Control Experiment stage allowed determining that the courses of the fundamental, natural sciences and general economic training are built to give students a strong foundation of basic knowledge in each subject, but without proper development of planetary thinking. We consider experimental testing of other effective innovative learning technologies for the development of planetary thinking among future specialists to be the prospect of further research. In addition, there is a need to conduct comparative studies in order to check initial and after-experiment results of planetary thinking concept as one of the central.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
